It has been little over 2 weeks from the end of the ICO. We spent some time trying to get VOT to exchanges, some time recruiting more work force and now we have finally jumped on development. We collected only fraction of the necessary funds during ICO and we did NOT reach our milestone for GUI Wallet. But we want to continue on this project, since we are convinced that the idea of using VoteCoin for public voting, crowd funding and opinion surveys has big potential. Unfortunately due to lack in financing, things may go little bit slower.

We agree with your suggestions that our top priority should be VoteCoin GUI Wallet now.

There are several possible ways to go:

1) The Quick way - we can fork or extend some existing software, such as https://github.com/zencashio/eleos and release it as VOT Wallet. We're not willing to go this way, since such wallet brings no new features to VoteCoin. We prefer to focus on developing our own software. But if there is a community member who wants to try this, we will surely support that effort by providing links from our website to such fork.

2) The Satisfactory way - we can develop a solution to provide some sort of GUI on top of the text-mode wallet. Technically, you would still need to run the text-mode wallet as you do it now, and at the same time you would be able to access the most common features through your web browser, which would communicate with the textmode wallet. This way we could create appealing GUI wallet in a reasonable time, but this would be a bit uncomfortable and unprofessional. On the other hand, the code implemented for this solution could be mostly reused for our final GUI wallet too, so we may be able to do this within the next few weeks.

3) The Best way - we prefer to continue developing VoteCoin GUI wallet with all the features we want (especially the voting) in Electron, or similar multi-platform framework. Our dev team estimates that this will take few months to be completed and properly tested. We hope to provide such wallet in first quarter of 2018.

Made just swing wallet, like ZEN have, without any special features.Go at least to few exchanges, it's totally crazy what you still have only 1 exchange and it added VOT by himself.

And after that develop GUI wallet with all the features.

Otherwise by the time you'll release the wallet it will not help VOT to became alive.

I didnt sell all my 2k coins at tradesatoshi at highest price, Still waiting for 1$+. But Dev should be really more active. On every direction: bounty, promotion, commercial, cooperation with other projects etc.Maybe it will realive the Votecoin.But now inactivity, or such low level of activity is not making good view for the coin in front of other projects.It was really great start of ICO with 29BTC at the END. But I'm sure that it could be even more better.So I believe in potential of this Coin, but Devs should make it great again.Make the VOTECOIN great again!

We tend to disagree. Listings on exchanges do not ensure whether the coin is alive or dead. Don't get us wrong, we would like VOT to be listed on as many exchanges as possible. We did our best to get VOT listed at several exchanges (small and big ones). But please understand that it is not our decision not to be listed, it relies solely on exchange decision which coin they list! Show us other coins that started from scratch, are 1 month old and already have listings on major exchanges.

For example look what happened to Bitcoinz. After listing on C-cex price went down from 150 sat to 11 sat. This shows, that listing on multiple exchanges will not help coin to grow. What will help to grow value of the coin is finished product which users will use. Once we have finished product, people will start using it, creating demand for VOT and this is the time when exchanges will start listing VOT. To be honest, without working product we seriously doubt any major exchange would list VOT.

And we are working hard to have our product (wallet with voting feature) finished as soon as possible.

Totally agree what first of all success will be provided by working product. Especially having such a good idea and a pro dev, we will see something truly worthwhile.I'm ready to admit that the tactic of expectation is one of the most effective, it works great when there is a certain mass of people waiting for the product, and my idea was only to draw more attention to the project through a simple working wallet, some small exchanges, provide some news here and on twitter how development is going.

It's too early to talk about serious exchanges, and worthless to try get there for money, when it can be done for free, having a decent product and a large community.

Wish you all the best.

well said! Thanks man

BTW - we are still awaiting any sort of action from yobit. Still no answer to our support ticket and Yobicode still active in our account.

I totally don't get why many worry about exchange listing. VOT is less than 2 month old coin (And already listed by Tradesatoshi by they own wish). Good code can't been made in few hours-days. It's needed some weeks-month to do various tests and make really quality product. Just little bit more patience

I dont use whatever problem being able to allow bitcoin pass away, there are thousands of milions invested more than bitcoin, i question those firms that had reached Return on investment they will allow the most profitable investment to pass away due some issue. We are facing the divided of opinions at the core, something that harm bitcoin, however this had been inevitable, since we are different.

And we are working hard to have our product (wallet with voting feature) finished as soon as possible.

You cannot go to the moon after product will done if you dont do any advertising and strong dialog with the community while development. As advertising I meen an announcement your development here on bittalk step by step. And only invoke to be patient dont build it!

There are many perspective coins where no final product at this moment but they have strong community support because devs show their gradual steps how coin will be evolve. Look at iEx.ec (RLC). Devs annonce working product only at 2018 but coin is on head exchanges traded by 8000sats.

I read news about coins that have(will have) vote features really often. Some of them on Ether by the way. VoteCoin idea is actual now and VOT can get lost among them without strong and huge community. And how to build it I described early.

I see devs are professionals and belive VOT will be polular coin and service.

Good day, dear developers! Take me in your team, I will promote and advertising VOT. That would be constantly stir the interest of the community that people would be constantly talking about us. Woo I have the access to famous Russian bloggers who can tell you about the coin. If interested write to dolgodorogo@gmail.com
